Hello family, friends, and followers! With the end of the year neigh upon us, it's time to set some New Year’s resolutions for reading and writing in 2018. My goals are as follows:
Some of these are lofty, but if I can even come close to completing half of these, it will be an incredibly successful year. That said, I also had a lot of accomplishments this year. I re-wrote my first book and had a whopping 10 full agent requests on it which is more than I had ever dreamed of. 7 of those full requests are still open and pending, so maybe I’ll be lucky enough to knock off one of those resolutions early. I went to my first writing conference, my first in-person-pitch, and learned a tremendous amount about the craft. I won my first ARC, participated in #Pitchwars #PitMad, #DVPit, and #SFFPit. I met some really incredible friends on twitter who have been both a tremendous support and incredible teachers of the craft. And finally, I won my very first #Nanowrimo! 57,000 words in the month of November on a new book was a huge achievement for me and I couldn’t be more proud of myself. 2017 was a year of ups and downs, but the good far outweighs the bad. Here’s to making 2018 even better and pushing myself harder to reach my dreams of seeing my name share a shelf with all of the authors I admire so much. Happy New Year, everyone! See you on the other side!
